Lake Broken Bow Crappie Fishing Report

The water temperature is 45 to 47 degrees
depending on where you’re at on the lake. The water clarity is clear on the
South end, but mid lake is cloudy to stained . The upper end of the lake is
muddy.


Crappie fishing is currently slow. They are still in deep
water 30 to 55 feet deep. They are positioning out on main lake points, main lake
channels and bluff walls.  They are staging to move up to spawning flats as soon as
we get a warm spell which will start the spawn. 



This year I’m adding a Family Pontoon
Guide trip to my fishing guide services. There’s a 4 person minimum and we can take up to 8 people.  It will be more
 comfortable and I won’t have to hire another boat.  We can all stay together
for a family-oriented fishing trip! 



I have been working all winter setting out
brush piles and my technique is different from others.  I have
learned some tricks of my own over the years for making sure my brush holds lots of crappie.
Come fishing with me and I will share my technique with you.


Bass
fishing has really been very good this year.  I recently had a 12.39 lbs
bass boated during a tournament along with four other fish that weighed 3
lbs each with a total of five fish weighing 24.34 lbs – good enough to finish in 1st Place in a Tri-Lakes Bass  Tournament. 



Good bass between 3 lbs to 4.5 lbs have been biting all winter
long so come join me and you may catch the trophy of
your dreams. 


Sand Bass season is near.  In the next
few day the weather will start to warm.  When the water temperature reaches 50 to 52 degrees, the Sand Bass
run will be on and will last for about 3 weeks.  Lake Broken Bow has one of the best Sand Bass runs in the entire state.  Male sand bass come in around a pound and females around 2
to 3 lbs.  I will clean up to 20 sand bass for you.  You need to bring an ice chest if you want to keep all the sand bass you catch.  This is a great time of the year to
introduce kids to fishing. Just bring lots of warm clothes. It is a long ride
to where these fish are.


Walleye is the
best fresh water eating fish and beats crappie in opinion of most people.  May through July are the best walleye fishing months on Broken Bow and we catch up to 50
walleye a day.


Come fishing me!

Lake Broken Bow Fishing

Broken Bow Lake fishing guide Bryce Archey sends us this report from Lake Broken Bow at Beaver’s Bend State Park:


The fishing at Lake Broken Bow has been very good the spring, in spite of the crazy weather.  This year’s pattern is requiring different techniques than in the last several years, and clients are catching on quickly to what I like to call “Old School Broken Bow Fishing”.  Techniques that my Dad and I used years ago growing up on the lake are working very well for this year’s tough bite.

Here are some recent pictures from trips.  Clients have caught just about every fish species in the lake.  Pictured here are some nice smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, hybrid bass, and walleye.  The spotted bass, sand bass, and crappie bites have all been strong too.

Broken Bow Fishing Report

Lake Broken Bow Beaver's Bend fishing report by Oklahoma fishing guide Bryce Archey Fishing guide Bryce Archey of Lake Broken Bow (Beaver’s Bend) sends us this fishing report:

The fishing is really good right now with numbers of spotted bass, smallmouth, and largemouth being caught. November is the best month for catching a better quality of fish. We are averaging about 30 t0 35 fish a day. I have a few dates open from now to Thanksgiving week. That week is a great time to be on the water.

Here are a couple of pictures showing what not only fishing can be like, but what other scenery you can see on Broken Bow lake. Jim Jacobs caught this 4 lb smallie with me a week ago. Then on another guide trip my client John Schmitz and his wife were fortunate to get this picture of a buck and doe swimming across the river channel just south of Bull creek. The buck was a true 10 point.

Father Son Fishing @ Broken Bow

Last Sunday, 7 year old Cameron Sherbert, his dad Brandon and I went out fishing.

We had an outstanding top water morning! The big fish weighed right at 5 lbs and was the biggest fish Cameron has ever caught. (Click on picture to enlarge.) It was a great outing with father and son.

The bite is still good and I have some openings for the last few days of June if anyone is interested.

Editor’s Note: Way to go Cameron! I’m jealous – what a great bass!! What did you catch him with?
